The Royal Family on Christmas Eve, as they open gifts then but they're joke gifts to each other.
--
My family all together in one nicely decorated place. We hardly get the chance to be together all at the same time. Someone else cooking so we can all relax and chatter and play games.
--
All of my grandparents as I only got to meet one, when I was a wee bairn.
--
Likewise, the soldiers in the trenches. To see the happiness of them all.
--
My dad because he died when I was pregnant with my first child, his first grandchild, and I think they both missed out on so much!!

The Waltons - a big family Christmas, in a nice location
WW1 soldiers in the trenches during the Christmas truce to see what it must have been like for them.
Charles Dickens - I love ‘A Christmas Carol’ & would like to chat about it with him and how it revived our Christmas celebrations
